Rey Resources

Rey Resources is a small Sydney-headquartered company with interest in the development of coal projects. The company states that its strategy is to "develop an export thermal coal mining business as well as investigate the potential to develop underground coal gasification (UCG) and coal bed methane extraction."

Rey's Coal interests
Rey Resources holds extensive exploration licences for coal south of Derby. The company states that the coal in the region is of thermal quality only and would be for export to China and India. The company states that the closest deepwater port is at Point Torment, approximately 175 kilometres to the north. (The alternative closer port at Derby would have limited potential due to the substantial tidal range).

On its website the company states that:


 * Duchess/ Paradise Coal Project, a notional mine which the company states it is investigating as a possible export thermal coal operation comprising open cut and underground mines.
 * Liveringa Coal Project, a possible underground coal mine.
 * the company also states that it is also considering coal bed methane extraction and underground coal gasification.
